She remained strong until the day Finn Doherty, the one person she thought she could trust, broke her heart.\u00a0Now a successful travel writer, Zoe is excited to be reviewing a new luxury hotel for her blog in the beautiful South Pacific\u2014until she meets its owner.<\/span><br \/><br \/><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Finn was never good enough for Zoe. He knew it. Zoe\u2019s family knew it. The village of Hawkes Cove made sure he knew it. And then he proved everyone right when he let her down in the worst way possible. Becoming a successful businessman has convinced Finn his past is behind him\u2014until a journalist turns up to review his new resort.<\/span><br \/><br \/><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Meeting again stirs up all the old feelings, and all the painful memories that pulled them apart, too.\u00a0As Finn shows Zoe the exotic wonders of the islands, both face the fact their shared past might just be the beginning of a future.

She wanted to believe that he could have been the one person she could rely on after her debilitating car accident, but he proved to be another failure in life. She has picked up the pieces and learned how to live with her disability. Zoe is now a successful travel writer and spends her time showing the world they can travel despite any physical challenges.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Zoe arrives in Tahiti at a resort only to discover that <strong>Finn<\/strong> is the owner. She is flooded with emotions. She is not ready to forgive, but she needs to move forward. Finn agrees to show her around, but she can keep her emotions from getting the best of her.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I fluctuated with this story. There are so many things to love about the plot. There\u2019s the fact that this is a second-chance romance on an island. I love all of that. I even appreciated the author\u2019s ability to show Zoe\u2019s disability and how she navigated various challenges in her travels. However, the character\u2019s development felt stunted in so many ways. The readers are meant to believe that Zoe and Finn have not been in contact for ten years. That\u2019s a long time, and their personalities should have changed. However, they felt young to me. The immaturity was on full display.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The insta-love was another factor for me. I didn\u2019t like that they were almost ready to be full-fledged in a relationship after such a traumatic turn of events from their past. It was like, let\u2019s forget about all that pain and move forward. However, they needed to find a healthy medium. The author throws in a bit of drama disguised as miscommunication, and then they are back in love. Too fast, not enough deep, lasting connection to appeal to romantic sensibilities.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I didn\u2019t realize this was a part of a series. I think that maybe I should go back to get the feels from one of the other books by this author since I\u2019m not that familiar with her writing style.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Overall, this is truly a light romance. Perfect for a lazy afternoon and fans of contemporary romance.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>~ Samantha<\/em><\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module text -->\n<div

\/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Zoe Tayler has spent her life doing battle: first fighting her parents for independence and then,\u00a0after a car accident at eighteen, adjusting to the fact she would not walk again. She remained strong until the day Finn Doherty, the one person she thought she could trust, broke her heart.\u00a0Now a successful travel writer, Zoe is excited to be reviewing a new luxury hotel for her blog in the beautiful South Pacific\u2014until she meets its owner.<br \/><br \/>Finn was never good enough for Zoe. He knew it. Zoe\u2019s family knew it. The village of Hawkes Cove made sure he knew it. And then he proved everyone right when he let her down in the worst way possible. Becoming a successful businessman has convinced Finn his past is behind him\u2014until a journalist turns up to review his new resort.<br \/><br \/>Meeting again stirs up all the old feelings, and all the painful memories that pulled them apart, too.\u00a0As Finn shows Zoe the exotic wonders of the islands, both face the fact their shared past might just be the beginning of a future. But only if Zoe can win the biggest battle of her life\u2014facing up to her heart\u2019s desire.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/3-hearts-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"135\" height=\"44\" \/><\/p><hr \/><p><strong>Release Date:<\/strong> Jun 4, 2024<br \/><strong>Series:<\/strong>\u00a0<em>Meet Me<br \/><\/em><strong>Book:\u00a0<\/strong>3<br \/><strong>Heat Level:<\/strong> Sensual<br \/><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Harlequin<br \/><strong>Imprint:<\/strong> Canary Street\u00a0<br \/><strong>Price:<\/strong> $12.99<\/p><hr \/><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Zoe<\/strong> remembers the days she was over the moon for the local bad boy Finn. She wanted to believe that he could have been the one person she could rely on after her debilitating car accident, but he proved to be another failure in life. She has picked up the pieces and learned how to live with her disability. Zoe is now a successful travel writer and spends her time showing the world they can travel despite any physical challenges.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Zoe arrives in Tahiti at a resort only to discover that <strong>Finn<\/strong> is the owner. She is flooded with emotions. She is not ready to forgive, but she needs to move forward. Finn agrees to show her around, but she can keep her emotions from getting the best of her.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I fluctuated with this story. There are so many things to love about the plot. There\u2019s the fact that this is a second-chance romance on an island. I love all of that. I even appreciated the author\u2019s ability to show Zoe\u2019s disability and how she navigated various challenges in her travels. However, the character\u2019s development felt stunted in so many ways. The readers are meant to believe that Zoe and Finn have not been in contact for ten years. That\u2019s a long time, and their personalities should have changed. However, they felt young to me. The immaturity was on full display.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The insta-love was another factor for me. I didn\u2019t like that they were almost ready to be full-fledged in a relationship after such a traumatic turn of events from their past. It was like, let\u2019s forget about all that pain and move forward. However, they needed to find a healthy medium. The author throws in a bit of drama disguised as miscommunication, and then they are back in love. Too fast, not enough deep, lasting connection to appeal to romantic sensibilities.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I didn\u2019t realize this was a part of a series. I think that maybe I should go back to get the feels from one of the other books by this author since I\u2019m not that familiar with her writing style.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Overall, this is truly a light romance. Perfect for a lazy afternoon and fans of contemporary romance.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>~ Samantha<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4bliAKI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apple.co\/3W2FEcM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">iBooks<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/meet-me-in-tahiti-georgia-toffolo\/1138968765?ean=9780369736710\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">B&amp;N<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/meet-me-in-tahiti-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kobo<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details\/Georgia_Toffolo_Meet_Me_in_Tahiti?id=Ka3UEAAAQBAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google Play<\/a><\/strong><\/p>","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31290","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31290"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31290\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31298,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31290\/revisions\/31298"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31275"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31290"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31290"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31290"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
